Bioethics[edit]

I recommend removing the Bioethics section. Bioethics is already a separate topic on Wikipedia, and the discussion in this article, besides being a little subjective, does not relate to biochips at all. Recommend removal or merging with the existing Bioethics page.

Can anybody tell the size of the biochips and the size of the arrays?

size[edit]

Can anybody tell the size of the biochips and the size of the arrays?

This pletora of discoucre about biochips and related technologies should be dicontinued. Biochip+human = the antichrist (the beast) The natural number of man in the sequence of creation is 6 because he was created on the 6th day. So follow and do this simlpe arithmetic. Man = 6; C = 3; O = 15; M = 13; P = 16; U = 21; T = 20; E = 5; R = 18 These are corresponding numbers of the alphabets in the order they are arranged. Now: MAN*COMPUTER => 6*3+6*15+6*13+6*16+6*21+6*20+6*5+6*18 = 666 = mark of the beast. So when a human is implanted with biochip for whatever reason, he had been engraved with the mark of the beast, 666.

They seem to be the size of a standard microscope slide. And to the contributer above me; the computer age has only begun. We have neural-computer interfaces in their infantcy and basic AI's. A biochip is a great advancement in the field of medicien that may save countless lives. I would gladly be injected with nanobots if it could help stave off disease. Please refrain from posting such complete nonsence — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.92.70.191 (talk) 02:08, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

size and array size[edit]

This will need confirmation, because there's a whole lot of biochips, arraying systems, and detection systems out there. But from what I've heard and seen, they are usually quite a bit smaller than a microscope glass slide. I've seen them about the size of a fingernail, maybe 1 cm x 2cm. Depending on the robotic system, I think the possible number of spots is between hundreds and thousands per biochip. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Grumbler12 (talk • contribs) 15:42, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

history section[edit]

The history section appears to have had a large portion removed, and left starting our with a sentence fragment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SuezanneC Baskerville (talk • contribs) 23:51, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Moved from article[edit]

These references appear to have been used to support content that has now been removed from the article, so I'm moving them to the talk page in case anyone would like to restore that content or use them again. -- Ed (Edgar181) 12:42, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
